[Bug 1045259] [NEW] Message count wrong in launcher and indicator

[Jussi Pakkanen]

Public bug reported:

The launcher and indicator menu display a number of unread messages.
This is very often (but not always) incorrect. See the attached image
for an example. There are no unread messages anywhere in my Thunderbird
folders, but the launcher icon shows 199. The indicator menu does the
same.

There are several bugs with incorrect number being displayed on them.
This is different to all of them.

Bug 850229 claims to have been fixed in oneiric. This still happens on
quantal.

Bug 856642 is about the launcher showing too small a number ("new" as
opposed to "unread"). In this bug the number is shown even if all
messages are read.

Bug 848774 seems to be consistent. This bug happens quite often but not
all the time. Otherwise the descriptions are very similar.
